sammy ‘he wears sunglasses all the time to hide his soulless inner-self or the chosen one to destroy all good music forever ‘ hagar has formed a new band. chickenfoot. guess who’s in the band? satriani, friggin chaz smith from rhcp and poor michael anthony, the only one with an ounce of talent. in an interview hagar the clown is quoted as saying they are as good as led zeppelin, that they could rival zep… god i cant wait to see this band live. chaz smith with his backwards hooters baseball hat and copenhagen packed lip, satriani with his weird alien lookin bald head and mock turtle neck t-shirt, sunburnt and adventure sandal wearing sammy, and michael anthony trying to hide behind his jack daniels bass which is the only device that will save them. experience the entire nightmare

jeremiah green drum breaks 7inch = rad

i was at the other day and bought a newly-released drum breaks 7inch by worldgang which is a collaborative project between modest mouse drummer and aka plastiq phantom, who is a touring member of and technical contributor to modest mouse. it’s a pretty cool little record.

this image is from the imputor site. that is not my hand nor my copy of the record. but you get the idea.

the record comes in handmade packaging (each one is different) and is a limited edition pressing of 300 copies. i suggest you buy it if you see it at one of the stores that’s carrying it or pick it up directly from , the label that put it out.

there are mp3 samples of all four tracks from the record on the imputor site. i’m reposting one of them here so that hype machine will pick up this post. ;)

wants for sale goes to vegas

is a project by artists justin gignac and christine santora. they make paintings of things they want and sell each piece online for the amount of money it will take to turn each want into a have.

today, they launched a great series of paintings called “vegas vacation,” which includes pieces like “to see showgirls” ($201.40) and “to fly home” ($488.50).

We’ve painted everything from the flights, the hotel room, showgirls, all-you-can-eat buffets and, of course, lots of gamblin’ money. Our buyers can even get in on the action with “$1000 to Bet on Black.” If we hit it we’ll give the buyer of the painting $500 back.
